I don't know all the details, but start with Vanguard.

When I did a rollover I only talked to Vanguard, which was getting my rollover IRA. The other broker did call me. I missed the call and never called back.

Already been said, but it is best to work with the broker that will be receiving the accounts. Just call Vanguard and they should lead you through it. They will likely make the process as easy as possible for you.

Vanguard has done this many thousands of times. Like the folks above say, call them and they will guide you.

Yup, call the people receiving the money. They are experienced and—more importantly—motivated. They'll point you to the right forms to sign to make it as quick and painless as possible (for them, and as a result, you).

Ameriprise will probably take a pound of flesh as you exit. If you want to know the damages in advance, you'll probably have to ask them. Otherwise, hold your nose and let Vanguard to the dirty work.
